Fewer than one gun per 11 sounds like abject poverty to me. However, half of the population is under 18, so it works out to one gun per 6 adults or so. Still, that's pretty poor, unless those guns are crew-served. :D

...non-governmental groups estimate there are 1 million guns in the impoverished country of 11.3 million people...

Looks like a Taurus marketing opportunity to me.

It will never work . Ever .

There is a group of Guatemalans and El Salvadorians that work the docks up here .

They will be the first to tell you they are a proud people that understand a man with out a gun is nothing .

After all the death squads down that way , you will always have hold outs that will never stand by and live threw that again.
